Gio Garbelini: The Rise of a Rojiblanca Star
Gio Garbelini, the young Brazilian star of Atlético de Madrid, is experiencing a sweet moment. March has been a spectacular month for her, with four goals and one assist in just four games. Her performance has been crucial for the team to advance in the competition, where they will face Barcelona.
Gio’s motivation is at its peak, especially after her expulsion in the first round against Espanyol, a match that marked the beginning of an irregular phase for the team in Liga F. Despite the collective difficulties, Gio is unstoppable.
“At the beginning it was difficult for me to score, but now I feel very happy and want to continue helping the team,” she commented after the Copa match against Granada, where she shone with a double. Her talent and effort do not go unnoticed by coach Víctor Martín: “She is doing a great job.
I highly value her effort, sacrifice and the values she brings to Atlético de Madrid every day”. With seven goals and four assists in all competitions, Gio is consolidating herself as a fundamental piece of the Rojiblanco attack, second only to Ajibade in the scoring table.
Now, she seeks redemption against Espanyol and to surpass her best sporting records. The match, which will be played at C. D. Alcalá, will pit Atlético against an Espanyol willing to give battle. With players like Lola Gallardo in goal and Gio leading the attack, Atlético will seek victory driven by the great moment of their Brazilian star. Come on, Atleti!
